Besides the Maxide I also take atenolol and prinivil. It is the only combination we could find that would regulate my blood pressure and it is the maxide that did the trick. I reduced the maxide dosage to 1/2 tablet on my own today to see what effect it will have. I will monitor it closely. I haven't seen the doctor since I started
atkins and have an appointment for my annual physical in 2 months. I will talk to him then unless something comes up before then. I must tell you that this is the second time I have asked for help since starting Atkins and both times when I weighed the day after posting my weight was down. I was down 4 pounds today. Go figure. Maybe I should whine and complain more often.

Thanks again for your support, it is appreciated.

I forgot to post my weight change today I am down to 296.
